Osgood Perkins‘ next film, The Monkey is releasing in February, and there are new images from the film ahead of its release.

Entertainment Weekly has released first-look images from The Monkey, while also offering up some insights from director Osgood Perkins and producer James Wan. Check them out below.

The film is described as a horror comedy, with Perkins leaning very heavily on the comedy aspects. Perkins explains his initial pitch to EW, “What if it’s a comedy? Here’s this monkey that doesn’t do anything. It’s not M3GAN. It doesn’t attack. It’s evil just in its existence. Things happen around it for no better reason than they do. Its presence makes people die in insane ways.”

The Stephen King adaptation stars Theo James (The White Lotus), Tatiana Maslany (She–Hulk: Attorney at Law), Elijah Wood (Maniac), Christian Convery (Sweet Tooth), Colin O’Brien (Wonka), Rohan Campbell (Halloween Ends) and Sarah Levy (Schitt’s Creek).

“In The Monkey, when twin brothers Hal and Bill discover their father’s old monkey toy in the attic, a series of gruesome deaths starts occurring all around them. The brothers decide to throw the monkey away and move on with their lives, growing apart over the years.

“But when the mysterious deaths begin again, the brothers must reunite to find a way to destroy the monkey for good before it takes the lives of everyone close to them.”

James Wan is producing with Atomic Monster partner Michael Clear (M3GAN), and C2 Motion Picture Group’s Jason Cloth (Joker) and Dave Caplan (Babylon).

In theaters February 21, 2025.
